MRO Journey – Join the Circle of Giving
In 2026, Moray Reach Out (MRO) is proud to celebrate 25 years as a Scottish charity, supporting adults with disabilities to gain a real sense of purpose, pride, and belonging within their community.
To mark this milestone, we have launched our year-long campaign, The MRO Journey: Join the Circle of Giving, with a goal of raising £25,000 to help secure and grow our services for the future.
Alongside this, we have developed an exciting programme of events and activities, offering opportunities for individuals, communities, and businesses to get involved.

To mark Volunteers' Week Moray Pathways organised a Volunteer Marketplace. The event allowed members of the public to find out about different volunteering opportunities. It was great to have the opportunity to chat with representatives from some of the volunteer groups with links to #historicbanffshire and beyond. From heritage railways to event first aid; from supporting people facing the challenges of energy costs to preserving and celebrating historic aircraft; and, from helping young people facing challenges to working with adults to develop new skills, the contributions of volunteers cover so much of life. Anyone looking to volunteer can find a place where they can volunteer their skills and make a difference to our communities.
